5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self-nominated at 05:44, 5 September 2015 (UTC).


 * Symbol question.svg Done within the time-frame, hook is interesting and has a source that checks out, QPQ done, no image, content fine. My only concern is about the question whether it's a 5x expansion. It is, if one doesn't include list sections in the original; if one does, it is not. The only help I've managed to find among the rules and supplementary rules section says that "Fivefold expansion is calculated from the previously existing article, no matter how bad it was (copyvios are an exception), no matter whether you kept any of it and no matter if it were up for deletion." I may be missing something here, but if I interpret this correctly this would then not count as a 5x expansion. Having said that, I would be happy if you could prove me wrong and let me put a green tick on the nomination. Yakikaki (talk) 18:33, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
 * According to the page size count generally accepted in DYK, the original length of the article was 353B and the present length 2268B, so this is a five-fold expansion. Bulleted lists do not count as text so an article can be expanded merely by changing bullet points into prose. Seek another opinion if you are in doubt.
